While the project started as a general exploration of the possible solutions, the latter half of it focused primarily on the de-formable cushion, as it was deemed the most problematic part to manufacture and was thus prioritized. The report will be divided into four main parts: A small introduction quickly going over the aim of the project and the initial state of things, then an overview of the theoretical part which focuses on all the research done in the first half of the project followed by the practical part focusing on molding a usable cushion and ending on a general summary of the work and evaluation.Exploration of 3D printing and injection molding techniques for the realization of deformable partsstudent work::semester or other student projects
